Discussion The med we need is shrooms

[depressedteddybear]

Did some mushrooms to try an have fun now I feel way less depressed what are yalls experiences with this?

 

[Blue LIPS]

Before I was put on Haldol injections I played with and grew shrooms. They really helped a lot with my overall mood and just made me feel good again. I microdosed them mainly and at times would eat 6 grams at a time to have some real fun lol.

 

[sundown12]

tried shrooms when I was super suicidal, I'm not gonna say they cured my suicidality, but they definitely changed my perspective on life in a positive way

 

[ToniFoxGirl!!]

I did shrooms the night I had the hard talk with my ex about her dumping me, and it helped me heal in the short term. I don't think they'll help me long term, but I'm gonna do them again in like a week

They definitely did not "cure" me if there is such a thing lol but I shure have felt better since the darkness is starting to come back today but it was great while it lasted

I have always had terrifying experiences on psychedelics, even taking a little too much cannabis makes me feel like im dying, although dissociatives are an exception for me in some cases. What ive always relied on is amphetamine, it might be dangerous and addictive, but it gets the job done for sure.

where do u get it

 

[LSDXMT]

where do u get it

doctor, prescription, but only a limited supply unfortunately. I just abuse the hell out of it. Specifically its dextroamphetamine or brand name dexedrine.

 

[MiesePeter98]

I did shrooms one time and after that i got "Visual Snow", wouldn't wonder if this doesn't say most people anything.

 

[Ambivalent1]

Tried it twice..gave me bad stomach ache

 

[Teleftaía Anapnoí]

I'm a mushroom grower and it's definitely a great medicine. You have to be careful, I've had friends who went into psychotic crises after eating mushrooms. The last few times I ate it was really weird thinking about suicide through psychedelic lenses. It's very painful to face that kind of thinking, but it felt really good afterwards. I was feeling good. Unfortunately, I believe that mushrooms cannot cure people completely, I will still commit suicide at some point.

Never tryed amphetamines

 

[LSDXMT]

Never tryed amphetamines

Perhaps that's a good thing, I am currently on the comedown after a binge, unfortunately I can't stay on the up and up. I don't know what i'm trying to say… It just doesn't feel too good.

i can't do cannabis AT ALL, i gave up after years of trying different methods and strains, my anxiety skyrockets and the best part of the experience is always when it's over
shrooms on the other hand were so very different, the hallucinations were pretty mild but the well-being was extraordinary, i feel and think like a complete different person
(ampethamines have been great though i only tried lisdexamfetamine)

I agree. It's like you can feel the force of each thought or something.

I had mostly bad trips. I did feel happy for a little while but it never lasted very long.

Yeah same, i take Vyvanse but don't take it how I should. I want to try shrooms but I can't find any supply unfortunately, but I am quite cautious with psychedelics since I have a bad history, but they can sometimes be very nice experiences if you get lucky or take proper precautions I guess.

it's worth pointing out that my experience differs a great deal from others i've heard so don't take it as a rule
most people trip a lot with shrooms, talk about other universes and people they met, but i don't
actually i feel more grounded than ever
ambien for example is more of a psychedelic to me than shrooms ever were, but i never heard of people who react to shrooms the same i do
i mean when i'm not on shrooms i'm all worried about my identity disturbance with bpd, i'm scared that i don't know who i am anymore, that i lost myself somewhere along the way and i miss who i once was
when i'm on shrooms however, my thoughts are more like "well, i'm myself of course, there's no point in missing who i once was because i'm still me and all of me is still here"
i don't go for small dosage either so it's interesting that no one i know has had the same experience, they all trip a lot
i always take care of set and setting though, i take it very seriously, i don't have to be feeling great or happy or anything but i must feel comfortable and safe
vyvanse is so much expensive over here, i only took it a couple of times, all of them great but not something i can afford regularly

 

[snowlance]

I wanna get shrooms but I have no idea how. Got some Amanita gummies and at 2700mg and they did nothing. I'm not high rn shut up

 

[jonghyun]

I tried shrooms and had a horrific trip where they made me paranoid and scared and seeing the hat man. I sat there and cried and prayed for the trip to be over for hours and i was even psychoanalysing myself as in mentally picking out all of my flaws and putting them up on an imaginary posterboard to really remind myself of my shortfalls

 

[tinyghost]

i used to do shrooms and even grew them! they definitely helped my depression a lot. unfortunately i developed schizophrenia so i dont do them anymore. i think they should be studied more.

 

[NotToTouchTheEarth]

I hoped this thread already existed so I wouldn't have to make it and am happy to see it here. This is somewhat my area of expertise so I wanna offer my two cents on the matter :)

Shrooms can absolutely help, but I would actually personally reframe this thread title to "The med(s) we need are ALL DMT-containing indole drugs". Because for people who have lost all taste for life, or believe they have, all tryptamines have something to offer. But I'd argue that the shorter lived ones are more therapeutic than the longer lived "highs" such as LSD (a ergot-type indole, no DMT) and to an extent, mushrooms (4-HO-DMT), considering their duration makes the possibility of a difficult trip more statistically likely.

The reason N,N DIMETHYLTRYPTAMINE (DMT), for example, feels so comfortable, comforting and familiar (at leiast at low to moderate dosages) is explained by some by its very presence in our brain, as it is secreted naturally by our pineal gland at the time of our birth, the time of our death, and possibly other moments no one is really sure about. What the DMT experience offers, with or without breakthrough, is something that would shake anyone's world to the point of making you reconsider a few things, such as the "value" of reality, and re evalue the importance of a variety of other things we usually view as important, but really, really fucking aren't. DMT is a realm of beauty where worlds fail, descriptions fail, a completely alien yet familiar entity that welcomes you and wraps you in love, and it does so in 10 to 15 minutes before gently sending you back to reality. Higher doses of DMT, breakthrough doses, will straight up introduce you to cities and beings you've never met before. Your mind is clear, as clear as it can be, but you are elsewhere, and this elsewhere is as familiar as your own home. It is in many ways an impossible place, buy you've been there before, and whatever lives there is welcoming you. In a sense, N,N DMT seems to be the place where we both came from and will go back to, this "earthly existence" merely being a bridge in between two eternities in a diversity of worlds.

It has helped me, a lot. Way more than I would have imagined. It should be noted that higher dosages aren't for everyone and that the suggestion is always to start off slow, get accquainted then climb towards the experience you need slowly. There is no such thing as a DMT overdose. The risks aren't non existent, but they're way more limited than with anything else.

For those who are called by it, have nothing to lose, or are just extremely comfortable with complete ego death as a concept AND an experience, it exists a compound called 5-MEO-DMT, or "The Void". People in the past have been fooled by the presence of "DMT" in the name and thought it would be like N,N. "A fun experience". These people all ended up terrified at best. But for those who knew what they were going after, what they had in front of them, and for those who were there to process specific trauma and were informed about the compound.. we remember 5-MEO as the most beautiful, life changing thing that could happen to an individual - as long as this individual accepts that, for a moment, they will have to die, dissolve, and realize that nothing they have ever believed was right.

It is humbling. And it is beautiful once you cross over to the blissful cosmic hug that results of dissolving, but I do not recommend it to anyone without a strong psychedelic background.

However, DMT, wether it be N,N or 4-HO in the form of shrooms I recommend. To everyone. Everyone struglling. Everywhere.

Much love.

Shrooms cause me to have terrible trips. I have however gotten some more acid. The body high of shrooms makes my suicidal feelings much worse

 

[Renee]

I bought some from a weed dispensary and made tea, them ate them, then drank the tea and nothing happened. Any suggestions?

 

[NumbItAll]

After experimenting with microdosing psilocybin numerous times over the last 10 months, I would have to say I'm not a fan. The active effect is usually nice, but then a week after taking it I start to feel mildly psychotic for a couple weeks. I feel like I have gained some insights along the way, but I'm not sure what the point is. It seems my brain is way too fragile for most drugs.

I think it could be a useful tool for someone else though.

[Brown-Jacket Revy]

Tried one small regimen of microdosing.

Didn't do anything for me.

It's possible that they don't work on me or perhaps the source was trash.

I tried from two different sources, too.

First batch made me incredibly irritable.

The second had absolutely no effect.

 

[HouseofMortok]

Tried 5g ground up Golden Teacher dumped in Coca Cola, omg was disgusting, all froffed up lol, but chugged it down, just felt nauseous for hours until finally caving in and throwing up, didn't trip or anything, no enchanced colours, felt odd and sick, that's about it. Second try about 2 week later, same again, but didn't vomit this time.

I'm going to try again at some point but i can't stand the sickness and they're not really doing anything :/

Edit, the 2nd try was with a cup of coffee instead, by putting the material in a strainer thing with water and used the infused water to make a coffee.

 

[snowlance]

I want to try them but don't know how to get them ;;
